Sex-related errors in job evaluation: A "real-world" test.
Abstract
The present study investigated the effects of the dominant sex of job incumbents, pay level of a job, and evaluator's sex on job evaluation scores among 103 compensation practitioners. No effects on either the absolute rating or relative standing of the manipulated job were found as a function of dominant sex of job incumbents or evaluator sex. Pay level was associated with substantial effect on the absolute rating and on the relative standing of the manipulated job. Implications for research and for the comparable worth controversy are discussed.
